To,
Smt.
Nirmala Sitharaman,
Hon’ble Minister of Finance,
North Block, New Delhi.
Sub: Meeting held on
16.11.20 through video conference.
Madam,
Kindly refer to the Ref. No. 186/AIB/G/20 Dt. 04.11.20 of the Association and the
meeting held with your goodself on 16.12.20 through video conference.
2. The Association
and its members are very much thankful to your goodself to get the DPC conducted
for the post of Asstt. Commissioner. As a result, 968 officers got much awaited
IInd promotion of the career against the DPCs conducted for the year 2018 and
2019.
3. As
per the submissions made during the meeting of 16.11.20, the following submissions
are resubmitted for kind and early resolution-
A. DPC for the post
of Asstt. Commissioner: The DPCs for the years 2020 and 2021 are
also overdue. The same may kindly be conducted to fill up all the remaining posts of
Asstt. Commissioner at an early date to promote other officers who are waiting
for their turn for long. It is also worth to submit that the temporary posts of
Asstt. Commissioner would lapse within a year.
B. Transfer orders of the promotee Asstt./Deputy
Commissioners: The majority of the promotee officers of the rank of Assistant
Commissioner/Deputy Commissioner have already attained the
age of 57 years or more. Majority of them are also suffering from old age
related chronic diseases/health problems. All the promotee Asstt./Deputy Commissioners (promoted recently or
earlier) may kindly be adjusted to the requested
place/own zone/station in this unprecedented time of corona pandemic as the
vacancies are already existing at every place.
C.
Implementation of the legal verdicts: Legal verdicts are not being
implemented in rem despite of being settled by the Hon’ble courts. Non-implementation of court verdicts is forcing
thousands of officers to approach the court flooding the unwarranted
litigations. The officers are forced to
go to the CAT/High Court even in the same matters which have already been
finalized/settled by the Hon’ble Higher Courts/Apex Court. Some of the legal verdicts have already been
submitted to your goodself vide above mentioned Ref. No. 186/AIB/G/20 Dt. 04.11.20 of the Association.
All
court orders may kindly be
implemented in true spirit in rem.
D. Upgradation/redesignation under
GST like State Governments: Posts have already been upgraded/redesignated by one step in
State GST. Not only
the counterparts of our Superintendents in the State GST have been
re-designated/upgradaed as Asstt. Commissioner but they have also
been placed in a pay scale equivalent to Level-10. Asstt. CTO has been upgraded to CTO, CTO to Asstt. Commissioner, Asstt.
Commissioner to Deputy Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner to Joint Commissioner,
Joint Commissioner to Addl. Commissioner and so on putting our officers under a very insulting, demoralizing
and humiliating sitution particularly in dealing with the trade and also state GST officials. Accordingly,
our Superintendents may kindly
be upgraded/redesignted as Asstt. Commissioner and their pay scale may also be
enhanced to Level-10 to bring them at par with the counterparts of State GSTto
save them from public humiliation and insult and the post of Asstt.
Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, Joint Commissioner and Additional
Commissioner may also kindly be upgraded/redesignated as Deputy Commissioner,
Joint Commissioner, Additional Commissioner and Special Commissioner
respectively on the lines of State GST.
E. Bringing of Flexible Complementary/Dynamic Assured
Career Progression Scheme to remove stagnation of our officers: Schemes already operative in the DST and
Health to remove the stagnation of the employees. The most of our officers are retiring
with single promotion on a PB2 post (Level-8) in a career of 35-40 years after
joining the job as Inspector (Level-7) whereas our counterparts including
Customs, Income Tax, CSS etc. are getting 5 to 6 promotions upto the Level-14. The Cabinet approved to take
extra measures to remove stagnation of group ‘B’ Central Excise executive
officers independent of cadre restructuring in 2013 but no
measures taken. An organization specific scheme is, therefore, required to be brought. This can be
done by introduction of flexible/dynamic
promotion/complementing scheme. Central Excise/CGST Superintendents are also
forced to work under their extreme juniors of Customs belonging to one &
same cadre of Inspector and recruited through one & same process under one & same
organization of CBIC in one & same department of Revenue of one
& same Ministry of Finance with one & same administrative hierarchy.
Examiner of 1984 has already become Addl. Commissioner (Level-13) after getting
5 promotions whereas the Central Excise Inspector of 1984 is yet to get IInd
promotion to JTS post of Asstt. Commissioner (Level-10). Particularly keeping in view the extraordinarily acute stagnation of Central
Excise/CGST executive
officers, the Central Excise/CGST Superintendents &
Inspectors may kindly be granted at least
5 in-situ promotions under flexible/dynamic promotion/complementing scheme.
F. Implementation of in-situ promotion scheme as
approved in CBIC Board meeting of 18.02.11: Scheme has not been implemented despite of repeated requests of the
Association. Not only the most of our officers are retiring with single promotion after
joining as Inspector but there are also disparities in promotions from zone to
zone. The temporary posts of Asstt. Commissioner with the clause of no further
promotion are unable to do the required good and these posts will lapse on
17.12.21. The said in situ promotion scheme may kindly be implemented w.e.f. date of its approval,
i.e., 18.02.11 as an instant measure to cope up the problem of the acute
stagnation being faced by our officers.
G. Cadre restructuring: The cadre
restructuring proposal of the most of other departments have
already been sent to DOPT but our proposal is yet to be sent to them. The last
date of the proposal to be sent to the DOPT was 31.12.18 which was extended
upto 28.02.19. The proposal may kindly be sent to the DOPT at the earliest.
4. It is once again requested to give kind consideration to
the above submissions for kind redressal for the sake of justice to Central GST
officers.
Thanking you,
Yours
sincerely,

General.
